The French team will fly to Oslo from February 4 to 9 to play the 4 Nations Tournament against Norway, Austria and Denmark. Blues coach Yorick Treille sent a list of 23 players, most of whom play in the Magnus League. Five players from the Bordeaux Boxers are in the selection. If Baptiste Bruche, Axel Prissaint and Kévin Spinozzi have already had the honor of wearing the tricolor tunic, it will be a first for Enzo Carry and Kaylian Leborgne.
The two 21-year-old attackers will discover the senior French team after having known all the youth selections. They already played together with the under-16s during the 2018-2019 season. This selection validates a positive start to the season for the two attacking partners. Kaylian Leborgne scored 13 points (5 goals and 8 assists) in 33 games, while Enzo Carry is the top scorer for the Girondins with 33 points (14 goals and 19 assists) in 33 games.
Butterfly left to rest
Quentin Papillon is absent from Bordeaux. The international goalkeeper, who has had an impressive start to the season with the best save statistics in the League (93.23%) and who had earned his starting stripes during the last World Championships, is voluntarily left to rest by the staff of the Blues.
